I'm on my second Kindle. The first one had a white line going down the screen. The second one doesn't seem as fast to refresh, but that's not the weird thing. Every few page turns it doesn't flash black like it is supposed to; instead, the letters seems to disintegrate and are replaced with the new ones. I have a short video of it here:

I did, and they will replace it, but I'm not sure if it's abnormal and without them seeing it, I am not sure they will be able to tell me either. I don't want to go through the trouble (and waste) to get another replacement if this is normal...

Let me know if it still does it, once you receive it. Mine does the same thing and I did not know it was a flaw. It was irritating at 1st but then I got use to it. I definitely want a replacement if that's not normal behavior; I've had it less then 2 months.

I think it is still debatable if it is a flaw. Amazon customer service wasn't even sure. All I know is my first Kindle (which was perfect except for a clear line going down the center of the screen) didn't do it and refreshed quicker; this one seemed sluggish. I actually find it more annoying then when the screen refreshes black...

New one arrived last night. I'll check it out later and let you know...

My Reader does something kind of similar, but only when it is really cold.

I only have 25 books on the Kindle. I hope that not to much since I have 45 books on my Sony with no problems. I'm not one to keep huge libraries on my reader, prefer to have them on computer harddrive.
